Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) slammed the suspension of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) daughter from college after she participated in a pro-Palestinian protest on campus. “From UM to Vanderbilt to USC to Columbia, students across our country are being retaliated against for using their constitutional rights to protest genocide. It’s appalling,” Tlaib added while sharing Isra Hirsi’s post to social platform X. Hirsi, Omar’s daughter, announced earlier that day in her post that she had been suspended from the university for “standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide.” “How does a student with no disciplinary...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has opened up about her own horrifying experience of becoming the victim of AI-generated deepfake porn — warning that it is “not as imaginary as people want to make it seem.” The Queens Democrat said she was scrolling through X while talking about legislation with her aides in a car in February when she came face to face with the AI-generated image of herself performing a sex act. “There’s a shock to seeing images of yourself that someone could think are real,” Ocasio-Cortez told Rolling Stone. “As a survivor of physical sexual assault, it adds a level...

Ever known for her hyperbole, far-left New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has falsely accused Donald Trump of ordering a “terrorist attack” against the Capitol during the January 6th protests. In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Ocasio-Cortez made the case that the current lawfare campaign against Trump is not political but instead about prosecuting terrorist activity: Has there ever been a president, Republican or Democrat, that has been subject to this level of criminal charges, indictments and investigations? This is not about party. This is not about politics. This is about corruption and criminality. We’re talking about an individual who...

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s (D-NY) district is looking like a scene out of a horror film as illegal immigrants take over the streets and overwhelm its resources. .. illegal immigrants have made the sidewalks of the neighborhoods of Corona, Jackson Heights, and Elmhurst their home.

An area in Squad member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s district is being described as looking more like a Third World country as opposed to a thriving American neighborhood, as desperate migrants block up sidewalks selling food and shilling clothing items while prostitutes openly solicit sex from passersby — reportedly including teens. The neighborhoods of Corona, Jackson Heights and Elmhurst — a once-vibrant community in northwestern Queens — has now essentially deteriorated into a large flea market with trash overflowing on street corners, leading to unsavory and unhygienic conditions, as video obtained by Fox News Digital shows. Meanwhile, the neighborhood’s main strip along...

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at protesters who accosted her at a Brooklyn movie theater and demanded the lefty lawmaker call Israel’s military campaign in Gaza a “genocide,” new video shows. Ocasio-Cortez was with her fiancé Riley Roberts when she lost her cool and dropped an f-bomb as a couple of protesters badgered her at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema around 5 p.m. Monday.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was met with hecklers during a town hall earlier this week over the state's migrant crisis. While Ocasio-Cortez was discussing policies such as the Green New Deal in Queens on Thursday, two hecklers interrupted her and said she cared more about illegal immigrants than her constituents, according to Fox News.

"My name is Jonathan David Rinaldi, and I'm running for Congress against AOC. The Green New Deal is a scam,"...

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, wants the Biden administration to reverse course and "restore" humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war. On October 7, 2023, Hamas led the deadliest Palestinian militant attack on Israel in history. Israel subsequently launched its heaviest-ever airstrikes on Gaza, home to more than 2 million Palestinians. Israeli officials have said that about 1,200 people in Israel were killed and some 250 hostages were taken by Hamas, according to the Associated Press. Meanwhile, more than 26,000 Palestinians have been killed, officials from the health ministry in Gaza said. International organizations have...

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was hilariously heckled by a New Yorker in her district, who asked if she would condemn Hamas and quizzed her on her knowledge of the three branches of government, referencing a past gaffe. The heckler also called her “a loser” and sarcastically praised her performance. “Oh, AOC! Oh, hey… you’re gonna condemn Hamas and the terrorist attacks here or what?” “Do you know the three branches of government yet?” they yelled. “It’s executive, judicial, and legislative branches,” he said sarcastically. “You’re doing a great job,” he added with sarcasm.

A former top aide to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y., funneled six figures in donor funds from his political action committee into his own pockets for reported consulting work, all while spending minimal amounts on the PAC’s actual mission. Corbin Trent, who previously acted as a top aide to Ocasio-Cortez and helped propel her into office, formed the No Excuses PAC after his departure as her communications director in 2019 and exiting her campaign in 2020. Trent launched No Excuses in 2021 with the goal of nuking the Senate filibuster by targeting senators Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Kirsten Sinema, I-Ariz....

Critics blasted New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for a Christmas message comparing Jesus to the Palestinians, with at least one saying it invoked the historic charge that the Jews killed Jesus.

Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been slammed for her Christmas post that called Israel a violent occupying force and likened Jesus to the Palestinians. Posting on Instagram on Christmas Eve, AOC shared a photo of a child lying on a pile of rubble surrounded by wooden nativity scene icons. Accompanying the photo, the New Yorker wrote: 'In the story of Christmas, Christ was born in modern-day Palestine under the threat of a government engaged in a massacre of innocents.' She went on to compare Jesus being hunted by King Herod to the 'right-wing forces' currently 'violently occupying Bethlehem.' Her post...

Details violation of Mann Act, exploitation of hookers, influence peddling, proof that Brandon is "big guy". AOC and others get mad because she shows a pic of a hooker in a bikini. Say it's "porn". Details stonewalling by Justice, asks that Weiss be removed as Special Counsel.

Progressive firebrand Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at the Biden administration for opposing a UN resolution calling for a cease-fire in Gaza. Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) called the White House reaction “shameful” in a post on X after the US vetoed a measure backed by almost all other Security Council members and dozens of other nations demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza. “The Biden Admin can no longer reconcile their professed concern for Palestinians and human rights while also single-handedly vetoing the UN’s call for ceasefire and sidestepping the entire US Congress to unconditionally back the indiscriminate bombing of Gaza,” she wrote.

No...I'm not sorry. And no, I dont want to date her. But I think she and AOC may make a cute couple.

Democrat Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants the cows to stop farting, but it doesn’t appear that the Congresswoman is willing to stop farting herself. During a recent X/Twitter livestream, while discussing the Israel-Palestine conflict, Ocasio-Cortez appeared to rip a massive and loud fart mid-sentence. --snip-- Maybe AOC should limit her own carbon emissions. The fart quickly became the center of many headlines around the world, with Twitter users comparing the blast to Democrat Representative Eric Swalwell’s fart live on CNN several years ago. See a clip of Swalwell’s infamous gas blast below… For all the talk of carbon emissions, it appears...

Progressive Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has leapt to the defense of fellow New York representative Jamaal Bowman as he faces criticism for pulling a fire alarm in the Capitol on Saturday. AOC told CNN's Jake Tapper on Sunday that Bowman's actions occurred in a 'moment of panic,' exacerbated by the pressure and chaos of attempting to avert a government shutdown - which Congress successfully did late on Saturday. 'I think there's something to be said that the government's about to shut down, there's a vote clock that's going down, the exits that are normally open in that building were suddenly closed,'...

@CollinRugg Collin Rugg on X : NEW: Mass looting breaks out in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as criminals were seen stealing IPhone 15s from the Apple Store. Luckily, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez explained in 2020 why people loot: To feed their families! I’m sure those IPhone 15s will taste great. “They go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money. So… they're put in a position where they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry that night.” Sep 27, 2023.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (R-NY) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “All In” that House Republicans should be investigated for their conduct. According to Ocasio-Cortez, there were questions about ethics during the impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden. Discussing the hearing earlier today, anchor Chris Hayes said, “This was a really striking moment. There was larger text that altered what that conversation about getting a job was really about. How did you catch that? And what does it say that that is the evidence that they are using in this, their first impeachment inquiry?”

Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), two of Congress’ most vocal proponents for aggressive climate action, on Monday called for President Biden to establish a Civilian Climate Corps. The CCC had been a key element in early versions of the Build Back Better Act, the sweeping environmental and infrastructure bill. It was not ultimately included in the slimmed down Inflation Reduction Act, which was nonetheless the largest climate bill in U.S. history. Biden was a vocal backer of the Climate Corps early in his presidency, comparing it to the Civilian Conservation Corps introduced during the presidency of...
